a friend of mine is getting a rescue cat/kitten

CathyW · 15-01-2006, 12:16 PM

and hes been picking my brains, told him for the first few days or week dont let the kids pick kitty up,let the cat/kitten come to them,let puss settle in, said about all the stuff he will need, hes gonna have kitty done,didnt want any babys,ect. hes going to a CP place,where hes passed a home check,and they are going in feb to choose a baby, the kids are choosing then a week later they will go n pick their baby up, his kids are 10 and 7 so not babys who will want to *play* old enough to know right from wrong.
but i was so pleased when he told me,
when he gets it and we go n visit ill take the cam so picsa all round

cant get enough of kitty pics. but i was pleased with the CP who are not rehoming cats over the xmas period. well done to them.

Our rescue stopped rehoming mid-December and started again after New Year

Good plan for them, really, but at the time I didn't realise why and thought it was so they could have a holiday

Silly me.

Good for your friend! I really want a Maine Coon, but I know I'll probably never have one... Not when there's rescues full of cats around. I have a bit of a bleeding-heart problem over here

I have the same softie attitude as well. I went to look at a couple of kittens a little black queen and a black and white tom cat. When I got their their tabby mum climbed on my lap and the rest was history they are now reigning moggies of my home and are tabby mum, Queenie, black demon wallpaper stripping queen Tippy (she has the tiniest white tip on the end of her tail) and Socks the big black and white tom who uses my collie Lucy as a surragote mum as she does all of the mum things without biting him.

My boyfriend keeps saying when we go to get our new additions, he's coming with to prevent me coming home with an entire litter

Dunno where he gets that mad idea though
